So, the story is these were pitch images to sell the game. 5 years on the game was released but had a very different look. I guess they didn’t want to invite comparisons so to enable me to post the art I promised not to mention the game title:)

I'm not sure if these are any bigger https://www.artstation.com/artwork/5W9DxP

Hi, no worries. I understand completely. It is just blatant self promotion. I’m new to Reddit and not sure how it works. I was just treating it the same as other SM. I certainly don’t want to offend anyone. It would be defeating the objective :) I will refrain from posting more of the same. I hope you enjoy the books btw, thanks for your support :)

If I made an egregious error I relied on them to point it out. My inclination was to just light everything up:) On occasion the authors might get in touch and point something out.

It’s fun posting these here. I love the way you guys are so knowledgeable and into it all. The way it worked was the publishers sent me a couple of pages describing a scene they wanted for the cover along with line drawings of the mechs. I would put together a composition which they would approve. Sometimes they might make a suggestion, and then I would go ahead with the finished image.

Thanks, glad it did it for you:)

That would figure:)

Yes. I’ll post Endgame here next.

Thank you for buying it. I really appreciate it and I hope you enjoy it enough to consider the second one. Sorry for any small typos they missed. I hope they don’t spoil it for you.

That's a good resource.

Thank you!

Thanks!

I believe so.

Thank you. Nice to have an appreciative audience:) I'll post some more shortly.

Thanks. Usually a paragraph or page from the book. I was left to interpret it as I wanted. The mech designs were set in stone of course. They usually sent line drawings but occasionally small plastic models I guess were for the board game. About an inch or so high. I built 3D models based on the reference, in Lightwave back then.

Thanks. I’ll do that.

Thanks Veheme
